Hello i am hopeing this can be implimented<br />
currently ethtool will happily display a lot of <br />
information about auto-negotiation, however there is <br />
one state that seems to be missing that i would find <br />
somewhat useful<br />
the state of the auto-negotiation with regards to if <br />
it sucsesfully auto-negotiated a speed/duplex or that <br />
the other end did not advertise auto-negotiation<br />
this functionality is present in mii-tool but i cannot <br />
seem to see it in ethtool<br />
(example output from mii-tool)<br />
eth2: no link<br />
eth3: negotiated 100baseTx-FD, link ok<br />
eth4: no link<br />
and<br />
eth2: no autonegotiation, 100baseTx-HD, link ok<br />
eth3: no autonegotiation, 100baseTx-HD, link ok<br />
eth4: no link<br />
a field of<br />
Auto-negotiated: yes/no<br />
would be most useful<br />
Thanks, Mafoo</p></div>MafooFri, 20 Jan 2006 09:05:42 -0000http://sourceforge.net529acff6b931a31bb4565ae0d8a32fbb60aee01e
